Have no idea what you're saying above, are you complaining about the Charles' accuracy or the Bismarck's? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did both of them were same thing? monarch has the best concealment (apart from the unreleased roma)of T8BBs, but the armor is meh and the guns suck quite hard, so even if you wanted to play ambush then NC would be a better choise due to its still very good concealment and VERY powerful guns Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This inconsistency will cost you stars. Im leaning towards the bama and NC as the only viable BBs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

13 [INDIA] Aniket_Sengupta Member 181 posts 4,712 battles Report post #14 Posted January 6, 2018 Not an exceptionally skilled player but I find the Bismarck fine for ranked. Also when it comes to main gun accuracy, I found the Bismarck's guns better than rest of the KM BBs(though I haven't tried the GK yet). I think you need to get used to the german aim, also KM BBs are particularly built for CQB with secondaries being a key factor. At that range you just don't go full broadside, press fire and pray for RNG hoping to see everything gets deleted. Instead you burn them down. I have moved on to the Freddy, so in the current season the few ranked matches I played on the Bis, I did with a lower spec-ed/skilled captain, despite that I feel the ship is fine for ranked, in fact more suited for it since there aren't as many ships as you'll find in a random battle, if you are being focus fired you can disengage, heal, reengage against exiting to port. When it comes to facing other BBs your bow and superior overall armor suite ensures your secondaries finish them off before you are down, provided you stay angled.

Bismarck main food is cruiser and DD that come close to it. in ranked.... there is TOO MANY BB, and unlike random.... most of BB is well angled. in ranked, DAMAGE is no#1 with the shittiest gun with poor accuracy.... LEL i dont mean to stat bash but according to the stat, Bismarck DEAL LOWEST DAMAGE compared to other BB https://asia.wows-numbers.com/season/id,8/?type=rank in random battle? https://asia.wows-numbers.com/ships/ << compared to other T8 BB Bismarck deal almost same damage..... and actually a little bit higher than NC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Especially when it comes to Bismarck where not everyone can adapt to aggressive playstyle as easily as others, not all pushes will always be a success, a guaranteed detonation when torped below aft turrets. These are some of the many factors that routinely bring the ship's average stats down despite one can have really great games with it even if paired against BBs.
